In 2021, The Royal Mint redesigned bullion security with four new security features. Applied to our Britannia coin, it has made the coin the most visually secure in the world. First appearing on gold and silver editions of the bullion coin, this year these security elements feature on the platinum editions of the coin for the very first time.
The Britannia 2022 1/10oz platinum bullion coin is available to purchase individually or in tubes containing twenty-five coins.
Key Points:
Four visual security features have been incorporated for the first time
Struck in 999.5 fine platinum
Finished to The Royal Mint’s bullion standard
The reverse features the iconic Britannia design by Philip Nathan
Security Features:
Micro-Text
The micro-text next to the coin’s banding reads ‘DECUS ET TUTAMEN’, which translates as ‘AN ORNAMENT AND A SAFEGUARD’.
Latent Feature
A latent feature switches between a trident and a padlock as the viewer changes their perspective, representing both Britannia and bullion security.
Tincture Lines
Tincture lines highlight Britannia’s Union flag shield, which is a powerful symbol of Britain.
Surface Animation
The background’s surface animation reflects the movement of the sea, which adds to the intricacy and safety of the coin.
